Chicago Tribune reviews “City-Scapes” and “Aqua”

Chicago Tribune gives a glowing review of “ChiScapes” and singles out “Aqua”.

“The most successful movement, to these ears, was Fung’s “Aqua,” a sound portrait of architect Jeanne Gang’s 82-story apartment tower in downtown Chicago. The building’s gracefully curving concrete balconies and silken lines are evoked by undulating strings, contrasted with the whooping horns and rumbling trombones that suggest the brawniness of the structure. A roaring improvisatory passage gives way to a magical close: soft, glinting timbres disappearing into the ether. None of the remaining urban vignettes lasted long enough to leave more than an anodyne impression.”
